Can't Connect Ring Peephole Camera with PC or Tablet?
I've tried several times to connect my Ring Peehole Cam to a PC or Tablet, and neither will connect. I've downloaded the Ring app, and when I click on "Set Up Device" it takes me to a page with instructions on how to set up a camera. I follow the instructions, and it always takes me back to the instructions page and can't get passed that. My Amazon Echo Show won't connect with Ring either.

C@JJD66 Does it say connection failed for when you are connected to the Ring AP, or when you are connecting to your wifi? What light pattern does the Peephole Cam? If you can duplicate this error message, please take a screenshot and let me know what error this is for!

JI can't connect the camera with the wifi. I keep trying again but get the same error message. The light on the ring on the doorbell just keeps spinning around. Photo is attached.

C@JJD66 Awesome, thank you for this! Since it cannot connect to your network, you may need to change some settings on your router to allow it to connect. Please visit our Help Center Article [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/205385394-The-Protocols-and-Ports-Used-by-Ring-Devices) to adjust the ports and protocols on your router, and let me know if this helps it connect after making the changes needed!

Hi @JJD66. When you select Set Up a Device, you should get a screen similar to this (see attachment). From here you can select Doorbells and then your Peephole Camera to get this setup! Please note as well that you will need to set up from the tablet through the Ring app for ease. Could you please share a screenshot of the page you are seeing?
